Omg 😳 I really didn't think how much time I would spend weeding when I set up the beds for the market garden!! I can only hope that I'm slowly depleting the seed bank that has built up over the years of dock weed. I can now officially say I have had the first sunburn for the season and I should've known better on an overcast day to put a long sleeve shirt on. I finally have a good lot of silverbeet growing and no signs of disease (touch wood). Looking forward to having some for dinner soon. Feeling the need for a nice hot bath and a glass of wine after todays efforts. Few aches and pains from weeding in the same position (posture wise) all day. A couple of my tomato plants that I planted out a couple of weeks ago are not looking the flashiest, their leaves are looking curled up, thinking it's a disease but have given them a good feed of liquid feed so will see how it goes but if it doesn't perk up soon I may pull them just to be safe.
